Their search to find out who is behind the killings will take them into the midst of a deadly battle for a media empire. Ron McLarty's performances of the Deal series have received rave reviews. The Midwest Book Review describes them as "a powerful blend of high crime and strong characters, fueled by Ron McLarty's flair for dramatic character inflections."
